Friday Food Round-Up!

The craving part is probably a not insignificant part of why I’ve been giving our kitchen the side-eye. It’s always more fun to create when you Want Something Now.

Monday – Beef Meatballs with Fava Beans and Lemon from Jerusalem with rice and asparagus

I didn’t visit Israel until the end of January in 2013. But according to the Hebrew calendar, it has been a year. So to honor that, I thought it would be nice to cook a dish from Jerusalem.

We never, ever have fava beans. The shelling alone is enough to put me off of it. Frozen, shelled edamame? Always an excellent substitute.

Wednesday – Baked Potatoes with Trader Joe’s Turkey Chili

Y’all: Guess what.

Marcus made us dinner. Again.

I love him.

I had a few ideas as to what could make a good New Year’s Day dinner (frittata. beans on toast.). When 5:00 PM rolled around and it was time to make some sort of decision, all of that went out the window.

Also: It’s important to note that We Love Trader Joe’s Turkey Chili. If you haven’t tried it, you really should.

Behind The Words

Hi, I'm Kat! I'm a wife and runner.

What else do you need to know?

I'm a fiend in the kitchen, a (compulsive) over-accessorizer and an avid watcher of trash TV. As a life-long resident of Minnesota, come with me as I carve out my own lovely little space on the Tundra!
